15 Wrestlers Blacklisted by the WWE

These wrestlers will not be seen in a WWE ring anytime soon…

If one thing can be said about Nailz it is that he had a gimmick that seemed to very much fit his real-life personality: a former inmate who was dangerous and violent. Unfortunately for Vince McMahon, he got to find out how true to life this gimmick was first hand.

During the duration of Nailz’s tenure in the WWE, he was said to have a terrible attitude issue, one that would eventually lead to the decision to release him. Prior to his release, Nailz had apparently cornered McMahon and got into a physical confrontation with the owner of the WWE over a money dispute, even threatening Vince’s life.

The final “Nail” in the coffin that is Nailz’s WWE career came when the grappler testified against Vince McMahon in the infamous steroid trial in the early 90’s, during which he claimed to “hate Vince McMahon’s guts”. If threatening the owner’s life wasn’t enough reason to never bring Nailz back to the WWE, trying to get the boss thrown in prison will more then get the job done.
